the camera, but provides half frame inching for gate inspection andloop situating when installing a fresh mag.From a Remote CableThe Lemo2 connector, as well as Lemo6, Lemo8 and Amph9 accessoryconnectors, provide the capability of using a remote on/off witheither a half-frame or full-frame inching function.2.8.4 Single Frame OperationWith the use of electronic inching switch via the wooden handgripor a remote cable, the AATON 35-III can be used as a simple intervalometerfor single frame operation. Each frame is 1/4 sec exposure.2.9 LCD CONTROL PANEL AND JOGThe AATON 35-III utilizes a straightforward and intuitive controlpanel structure in conjunction with a small jog wheel to access andadjust all operator functions.2.9.1 The Aaton JogLocated to the immediate right of the LCD control panel, AatonJog is a small wheel designed to simplify many user functions. Whenused in conjunction with the contol panel the jog allows for quickadjustment of some of the otherwise time-consuming parameters(such as the setting of a precise 5-digit speed or a film short end).2.9.2 Understanding the Control PanelThe control panel consists of a LCD display and four buttons toaccess information. The control panel operates in two modes: Showand SET. To show a parameter without adjusting, go directly to oneof the black function buttons to view relative information. To set aparameter, first press the white SET button, then go to the appropiatefunction. Information is changed by either toggling that but-34

PressingSET afterwards (or waiting for 7 seconds) will enter your selection.Capped text (SYNC, VAR, ISO) refers to those functions adjustablewhile in the SET mode; standard text (Speed, Time, Iso/Batt) refersto those functions accessible directly in the default Show mode.Note that, while viewing a Show function on the control panel, anyinactivity longer than 10 seconds will revert the display back to itsdefault mode (speed and remaining footage). As mentioned previously,any break longer than 7 seconds while in SET mode willautomatically enter the last selection.The following parameters can be accessed from the LCD controlpanel in conjunction with the jog. For more concise information seethe table in the System Features and Controls chapter of thismanual.2.9.3 AatonCodeAs a standard feature the AATON 35-III is equipped with the capabilityof recording AatonCode in-camera time. TimeCode informationis exposed onto the film by optical projection of seven microdiodesinto the gate to the left of the aperture opening. Thesemicro-diodes flash rapidly to form the code as the film rolls throughthe gate between exposures.AatonCode is initialized in the camera, in ASCII or SMPTE form,through the Lemo5 connector located to the righ of the LCDcontrol panel. For the most straightforward and reliable communication,OriginCplus, Aaton’s masterclock, comparator, and SMPTEgenerator device, should be used.If AatonCode has been initialized in the camera, press button Timeto view timecode information. Toggling button Time will displayhours/minutes/seconds, then year/month/day, then the six-digit productionID, then the camera’s equipment #, in that order.2.9.4 ASA SettingWhen using AatonCode in the AATON 35-III, the ASA(ISO) settingmust be adjusted to the exposure index of the film stock being35
